“To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night. To know the pain of too much tenderness. To be wounded by your own understanding of love, and to bleed willingly and joyfully.” — Kahlil Gibran Solitude adds beauty to life. It puts a special burn on sunsets and makes the night air sweeter. Man goes into a noisy crowd to drown out his own clamor of silence. Do not get angry. Do not get angry. Do not get angry.

Some people use goodness because it makes them look good. But the deepest goodness is fraught with indecision, aging the skin with angst. It is only in their eyes you see a warm certainty. A look so foreign yet so much like home.

Salmān Al-Farisi (raḍiy Allāhu ʿanhu) in a few concise yet powerful words, says:
“Every person has an inner hidden affair and an outer public affair.
Whoever rectifies their inner affairs, Allāh will rectify their outer affairs.
And whosoever corrupts their inner affairs, Allāh will corrupt their out affairs.”

“Who were you before the world took everything out of you? Did you laugh with conviction? Did you stand with pride? Were your nights as effortless as the love you freely gave out? Tell me when it all changed for you, when you saw the stormclouds approaching. Show me how to retrieve your sunlight.”
— Noor Shirazie, The Weight of Chaos
